Requirements for unlocking, rotating, and moving the operating table
1. Lower the operating table top until the pictogram on the
column cladding is hidden (see page 80).
2. Set the operating table top tilt to horizontal (see page 79).
When the operating table top tilt is greater than +10°/–10°,
the lowering of the operating table by the operating table
software is blocked for safety reasons.
3. Move the longitudinal travel of the operating table top to the
level position (see page 81).
4. Reposition the spreadable leg sections parallel to the
longitudinal direction of the operating table.
CAUTION!
Risk of personal injury due to crushing.
Do not allow the feet to get caught in the running gear recess when
locking / unlocking, turning, or moving the operating table. Note
the crush hazard symbol on the running gear!
WARNING!
Risk of personal injury when transporting patients due to
tipping of the operating table.
For heavy patients or configurations with multiple accessories it is
recommended that more than one trained medical professional
transport the patient.
For longer routes or in the case of an operating table with a heavier
patient and accessory load, move or turn with two people.
